Library Services for Students
Research Help
Your library experts are available to help answer questions in a variety of different ways. Drop by with a quick question about citation or a hold. You can also schedule time with the librarian via Teams or an email chat. Or, schedule an in-person one-on-one research consultation. Email costas@ohio.edu for more information.
Live after-hours help is available via chat (with a human in Athens). Use the chat window on the 'Get Help' page of the University Libraries website for late-night assistance.
Course Reserves
When your instructor tells you there is material for your course on reserve this means they have asked the library to have things like textbooks or other reading available for you to use. To check out something that is on course reserve visit the Southern Campus Library and ask for your material at the help desk. Most reserve material can’t leave the library but can be borrowed for 2-3 hours.
Search the Primo Catalog for your courses to see if there are items on reserve for your classes.
